Krzysztof Penderecki: Dies Irae (Auschwitz Oratorium) / Polymorphia / De Natura Sonoris

Do you need an excuse to listen to some Krzysztof Penderecki? No you do not. Here's a 1967 Philips LP dedicated to his work, none of it reissued on CD, featuring some themes you'll recognize from "The Shining".

Dies Irae (Oratorium zum Gedenken an die ermordeten in Auschwitz): I. Lamentatio / II. Apocalypsis / III. Apotheosis
Polymorphia (Für 48 Streichinstrumente)
De Natura Sonoris (Für Orchester)
